The results of the Federal Reserve's January meeting are highly anticipated. According to the latest market data, the probability of interest rates remaining unchanged this month has risen to 84.5%, which suggests that the rate hike cycle may truly be coming to an end.



For the crypto market, this is undoubtedly an important signal. Mainstream cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and BNB have long been highly sensitive to Federal Reserve policies—expectations of rate cuts often stimulate risk assets to rise, while expectations of rate hikes have the opposite effect.

More notably, new policy developments are worth paying attention to. The official announcement of the new Federal Reserve Chair is expected next week, and the policy stance of this new leader could influence market momentum for some time. Meanwhile, the market is also digesting the possible rate cut expectations for January, further reinforcing hopes for a dovish environment.

From a technical perspective, such divergence in expectations often triggers significant market volatility. Investors need to closely monitor policy announcements and data releases, as even a slight change can lead to notable shifts in crypto asset prices. Both BTC and BNB could present important trading opportunities during this cycle—either breaking upward or experiencing a pullback. The market is on the eve of a major move.
BTC-1,67%
BNB-1,82%

84.5% stagnant? Then just wait for interest rate cuts. This wave should take off now.

84.5% unchanged... If this rate cut really happens, the crypto market will take off, we've been holding in too long. The new Federal Reserve Chair will be announced next week. If this guy is dovish, we'll make a profit. Waiting to see whether to dip or surge, anyway, there's definitely an opportunity in this wave.

84.5% chance to hold steady? Oh my, if they really cut interest rates, my short positions will definitely blow up... The new chairman will be announced next week, now that's the real show. Who knows what it will turn into by then. Can BTC surge this time? I still feel like it's just testing the waters repeatedly.

84.5% chance of not moving? Hey, looks like the Fed is finally going to loosen its grip, BTC should be stable this time The new chairman will be announced next week, that's when the real highlight will be... sitting in the front row waiting for a surge It's another "brewing big move," I'm tired of hearing it, but the key is still what the new chairman thinks The expectation of interest rate cuts, I am both looking forward to and afraid, afraid it will be another illusory hope Wait a minute, does this mean it's time to buy the dip? I bet on an 88% probability

84.5% chance remains unchanged. It feels like this round of easing expectations is really coming, can BTC take the opportunity to break through?

Wait, 84.5% remains unchanged? Are we really going to cut interest rates now? Can BTC have a decent rebound...
